Remember folks, "rubber bullet" is a misnomer.
"Rubber bullets (also called rubber baton rounds) are a type of baton round. Despite the name, rubber bullets typically have either a metal core with a rubber coating, or are a homogeneous admixture with rubber being a minority component." - Wikipedia
It is more accurate to say "Riot police are shooting students with rubber-coated-metal-bullets."
I know that doesn't roll off the tounge very nicely, but that's ok 'cause it probably shouldn't.
